Cut the chord in CO, Vern. Netflix + Prime + HBO gives you a well-rounded plan for about $30/mo. If there's a decent library near by, even better.


Well rounded for a non-sports fan.

Yea, the league passes are pricey, and sports mostly sucks on the platform I'm selling. I do get the 30 For 30 series on Netflix, and I guess HBO has good boxing. I am really excited for the HBO/Bill Simmons relationship to develop.


League passes are a good alternative but blackout rules suck and they don't cover the playoffs.


I use my parents att log in info to use the nbcsn app on my roku box to cover sports. There is an ESPN app too. Illegal streams are also really easy to find.

Pretty boring. And that subplot last week about the jacket is maybe the first storyline that served no purpose. I hope things pick up for the finale.

That was fantastic, so was the elephant stuff. And Jian Yang's prank phone calls are so amazing.

agree. it's pretty dumb. for a show that's supposed to remain true to real life, the fact they almost did a major fundraising round w/o the permission of the board is asinine.

Jian Yang's phone calls were strong enough humor to balance out some of the weakness of the other characters.

Agreed. The last couple episodes especially seemed to peter out.

:P Great line.

A Pied Piper Tweet appeared in my Twitter feed. Clicked on it and then read Jared's bio. So funny. Can't find the link, but basically they built a fake Pied Piper corp site.
